A new week means a new set of events in our Racing Club. Here's what's on tap for our Premium Members from May 18 to 25.

May is a great time to be a racing fan. Both the Indy 500 and the Monaco Grand Prix are not far away anymore, the trio of big 24-hour races in June are looming on the horizon, and the OverTake Racing Club has plenty of fun events on its schedule.

The Rally Club has a fresh set of events that will last you until June, and the circuit-based racers among you have plenty to choose from as well. Retro Formula 1, LMGT3s in Le Mans Ultimate, Super Tourers, the popular AC-based F1 Shadow series - there should be something for everyone to enjoy.

Of course, that is not all there is to race in this week. Check out the full schedule below!

What is the Racing Club?​

Simply put, the Racing Club is what its name implies—a club where members can race against other OverTake community members.

There is a bit more to it, though, of course. The Racing Club hosts events throughout the week in the following simulations:
  • Assetto Corsa
  • Assetto Corsa Competizione
  • Automobilista 2
  • EA Sports WRC
  • RaceRoom (currently inactive)
  • rFactor 2

Normally, Racing Club events are open to Premium Members only. However, there are occasional 'Rookie Weeks' or non-Premium Member events to allow everyone to try the Club. To keep track of what events are happening during the week, you can also keep an eye on this post, which will be updated weekly.

Just Good, Clean Racing​

If you are hesitant about online racing, the Racing Club is nothing to be afraid of. In fact, it is not about competitive racing and who wins in the end, but rather about having a good time on track with good, clean racing. This is the core element of the Racing Club.

Do not be afraid to ask for help if you need it, either! The Club regulars are a helpful bunch, so even online newcomers should feel comfortable in no time and even learn a thing or two.

Of course, there are Racing Club rules. These include certain on-track behaviour that is expected of participants, like handling incidents and racing around other cars. The full Racing Club rules list is here.

How To Sign Up​

Getting up and running for Club races is easy. As a Premium Member, simply head to the event page, click the race you want to participate in, and hit the "Sign up" button - that's it! Additionally, you will find the needed content, including download links, under "additional information".

Note that you must add your real name to your user profile to race, as part of the Club's rules. Your username does not need to be changed, though.

After that, it's as simple as showing up to the event, joining the party on the OverTake Discord server if you want to participate in the banter, and going racing—have fun, and see you on track!

I know this might be a daft question but what is the latest you can sign up for a race? Thinking of the ACC race but won't know if i can due to work. Got to try and sort something out with them 🤞

Best to just signup, Ian. Then just ping a message if you can't or couldn't make it.
For a club race it's no big deal.
